Car making sounds, need help...
Every time I break I hear a faint thud noise coming from the rear end. It just started today, but happens always now. Does anyone know what this could be? Maybe something is just loose and needs to be tightened, maybe it's worse. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.

no idea...I know that occasionally when backing out of the driveway I can hear the pads "click" when making contact with the rotors..but never a "thud"

Dead body....I need to check on that. Don't wanna lose the new car smell! I have Stingers arriving tuesday so I'll check things out when I'm swapping the exhaust. It doesn't sound like it's bad enough to not drive, but I'd like to know what it could be. Thanks for the ideas.

Thanks, I'll give that a look. I also just heard it pulling into the garage when I hit the lip with my rear tires. Hopefully this will be a quick fix.
